Effects of injured and dead cells of Escherichia coli on the colony‐forming rate of live cells

Osmotic stress‐induced injured cells of Escherichia coli were prepared by sorting live cells onto tryptic soy agar (TSA) containing 10–50% sucrose. The time course of colony‐forming rate (CFR%) was analyzed. A time delay in colony formation indicated a sublethal effect. The final CFR level at 24 h i...
